Walking

Walking is the simplest form of exercise.  It is healthy and it can actually increase your life span.

A moderate level of physical activity, such as walking 30 minutes a day, lengthened life by 1.3 years and added 1.1 more years without cardiovascular disease, compared with those with low activity levels. Those who chose a high physical activity level gained 3.7 years of life and added 3.3 more years without cardiovascular disease.

Don’t wait for the disease to develop before you start working out for your health.  Prevention is still better than cure.  You do not really need to spend a special time just to walk.  You can do it with your daily routine or habits.  Instead of taking the elevator, take the stairs.  There’s no need to ride a car in going to places where you can walk the distance.  There are a lot of ways on how you can get yourself walking.  All you need to do is to start putting it in your mind that you must take a walk more often.
